Just checked my emails was invited 2 hours ago to 2 new trials, on reaching website already full, hope some MSE's managed to get on, they are both for shaving products it would seem. I shall keep my fingers crossed further trials will come up soon and that I am online when they do.

I signed up with Maybelline site and got an offer through email for trying out a new lipgloss - the 16 hour wear one. On saturday a full size one arrived through the post, with a sheet of paper, link to report back on it, think its fab getting this, and will def put in a reply! Think its invitation only or would put up details of how to get this!

Hello, just wondering how did you sign up for maybeline, did you get an email or just join from the site, i have had a look at the website but couldnt see any where to join for testing products, thanks:D

I joined just 4 days ago and have today been sent an email for first trial test and accepted. I have now just completed the training section so maybe i will get even more! The profiling seems to take ages but i suppose the more they know about you the better. I would like to know why they asked for tesco clubcard and boots advantage card numbers though. Anyone got any ideas? I though maybe its so they can see what type of products you normally buy, but then i didnt think tesco or boots were allowed to share that information.

Why do they want the Tesco and Boots numbers? And is there any reason NOT to give this information?

Basically people on here think that if you say have a tesco clubcard and tesco want to test a product you may have a greater likelihood of being asked to join trial as an already loyal customer. if you are not comfortable putting this information in you can just skip it.

Thanks! I actually put my info in, and then read on here someone said "like I'd give them my clubcard number!" Which made me wonder if I was overlooking some reason not to give that info. But they don't have my password to log on to either Boots or Tesco, so I don't know how they could use my points if that's what they were up to, which I doubt.

Hi
I just wanted to ask has anyone any idea where I may be going wrong? I signed up to these guys last month or so and not received an email or anything?! Have filled in profile for myself and oldest daughter, done the training but still not heard a sausage. Am I just unlucky or am I overlooking something? Any help thanks.

For anyone not getting emails/invites - Have you ticked many brands in the profiles? I tick brands that I use and also brands that I would be happy to use, so basically I have most brands/items ticked. If you haven't ticked many, it might be worth ticking some more
